Our Vision

Foothills Soccer Club, a 501 c(3) not-for-profit organization, headquartered in Youngwood, Pennsylvania, was established in 1989 to provide a platform for soccer players living in Western Pennsylvania to advance into a more elite soccer player.    

 

Foothills Soccer Club is managed by soccer administrators, countless volunteers and a nationally licensed coaching staff dedicated to the betterment of Player Development where...

  • Each child is taught the elements of soccer and is encouraged to express these ideals through creative and mindful thinking in a non-threatening environment.

  • Players are encouraged to strive for the principles of excellence.  These principles create a self-disciplined individual capable of dealing with adverse situations on and off the soccer pitch.

  • Individual's are asked to complete objectives as a group and team within a competitive environment.

  • Participants are taught integrity towards sportsmanship, rules, opponents, officials and teammates that will transcend into adulthood.

  • Players are asked to self evaluate their roles and understand the process of accountability.

 Tangible steps that we take to achieve this vision,

  • Coaches use organized and age appropriate training sessions designed to enhance the technical, tactical, physical and psychological components of soccer.  These sessions will encompass small-sided games that are free flowing and coach guided not coach directed.

  • Teams play at the highest divisions provided by PA West Soccer Association, Region 1 and Premier tournaments to give coaches and players a viewpoint of the progress in development.

  • Manage and administer continual education programs that teach today's methodologies that will be executed by our professional staff.  These programs will be promoted and organized by the Director of Coaching.

  • Provide an Academy program that recognizes the need to train the youngest of players in an environment that nurtures the creative thinking of ages 6-10.  This program is community friendly as it works to allow the players continued participation in their in-house programs.
